Another High School Shooting ... Santa Clara California
by RubaDub inat least at the moment it looks like no one is dead, but 6 injured (9:00 am pacific time 14 nov 2019).. i don't know if the school allows students to carry weapons, but many will think it would be a good idea for the students to carry concealed weapons to provide personal protection.. we shall see.. rub a dub.

Santa Clarita, not Santa Clara.
staypuft ...
I stand corrected. Yes, Santa Clarita.
Thank you.
(unfortunately, I just heard that there is at least one child dead, so sad)

US statistics are skewed by inner city ghettos and illegal immigrants.
Jazzbo ...
By the tone of your comment, just use the words blackies and wetbacks. Or better yet, just use the N word. True, they often cannot afford proper health care in our system. As Trump calls the people in countries in Africa and Haiti, and I quote, "shit hole countries."
But people like you and I, whites, are real people and live longer. Yea !!!!!!

Now they are advertising voice activated faucets...you don't even have to walk across the kitchen to get the water.
tiki ...
I'll be interested when they have the technology to have voice activated toilets ... when you won't have to run to the bathroom in the last few minutes of a football game.
Maybe something like, "Alexa, I have to poop". And it's done!

Would you be OK with someone removing "Jesus'" name from the New Testament?
by Wonderment inwould it be all-right with you if a translator removes "jesus'" name completely from the new testament and replaces it with a substitute, like "master" throughout?.

If your in an American prison and hear "Jesus loves you." That may be a good thing. If your in a Mexican Jail and hear "Hay-Zoos loves you...you've got a problem.

That is funny ... I mean funny.

We have a lot of stress here in the US ....There are too many people being allowed to come in - both legally and illegally.
Long Hair Gal ...
Canadians, correct me if I am wrong, but I understand that you are very welcoming to people to live in Canada. When in Toronto and Vancouver, I feel like I see people from virtually every part of the world, just like New York City. We had a branch office of our company in Toronto. Maybe 35 people worked there. And I would guess the people were originally from at least 15 different countries. Then go to Vancouver, BC. I felt like I was in Hong Kong when I was there. Fantastic city. (By the way, if you like sushi, Sushi Town in North Vancouver, 1227 Marine Drive, is fantastic. It actually shares the building with a McDonalds, so walk in and turn right for McNuggets, left for sushi).
Back to the point, are Canadians less stressed than Americans that ultimately affects their health? If so, why?

Yeah you have to understand the American culture. Our country has a society that is prone to excesses of many kinds.
redvip ...
But I still don't understand how our neighbors in Canada, who have access to the same foods as we do, have average lives 3-4 years longer than we do.

Nothing to be "sorry" about. When I said "many" feel we have the best healthcare in the world, well, take a poll, "many" do. Right-wingers especially feel that way, America is the best this, the best that, etc. without examining the evidence.
Even the word "best" can be meaningless unless it is put into proper context. Ask someone what the best car is. One could argue that it is a Bugatti. If you have a couple of million dollars (or more) to spend and don't mind dropping 20k for an oil change, then that may be the best. Others may say a Mercedes AMG, or a BMW M series while others may say a Toyota Prius.
But I certainly agree that if the "best" is not affordable, then is it really the best? Many factors come into play.

Cuba may have a slightly higher average life expectancy but Cuban people are all poor and not free.
LoveUni ....
I wasn't in any way saying life in Cuba is better than here. Just the opposite. It just seemed strange when looking at the charts how some very poor countries have people living longer than we do here with what many claim is the best medical treatment in the world.
